Which of the following binds to the lactose repressor protein and changes its shape so that it can no longer bind to the operator site of the lac operon?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Allolactose is the molecule that binds to the lactose repressor protein and induces a conformational change that prevents it from binding to the operator site of the lac operon. This allows for the transcription of the genes required for lactose metabolism. Glucose, cAMP, and CAP do not directly affect the activity of the lactose repressor protein.
